  • Muslims in Post-War Sri Lanka: Understanding Sinhala-Buddhist Mobilization Against Them A.R.M
    Asian Ethnicity, 2015 Vol. 16, No. 2, 186–202, http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/14631369.2015.1003691 Muslims in post-war Sri Lanka: understanding Sinhala-Buddhist mobilization against them A.R.M. Imtiyaza* and Amjad Mohamed-Saleemb,c aAsian Studies, Temple University, Philadelphia, PA, USA; bUniversity of Exeter, Exeter, UK; cCordoba Foundation, London, UK This study attempts to understand the recent mobilization against the Sri Lankan Muslim community by Sinhala-Buddhist organizations. In doing so, it adds to the discussion about the relationship between second-order minorities and the state and how identities can be manipulated pre- and post-conflict. States, led by majority ethnic groups, may choose to work with second-order minorities out of convenience in times of crisis and then dispose of them afterwards. The article will attempt to look critically at some state concessions to Muslim political leaders who supported successive Sri Lanka’s ruling classes from the independence through the defeat of the Tamil Tigers in 2009. It will also examine the root causes of the Sinhala-Buddhist anti-Muslim campaigns. Finally, it will discuss grassroots perspectives by analysing the question- naire on the anti-Islam/Muslim campaign that was distributed to youth, students, unemployed Muslims and workers in the North-Western and Western provinces. Keywords: monk; Islamophobic; Halal; mobilization; conflict ‘Why, the Muslim community?’ This question is being asked by many people in Sri Lanka and beyond, astonished by the wave of Islamophobic rhetoric and acts of violence against the Sri Lankan Muslim community being undertaken by extreme Sinhala-Buddhists groups (led by Buddhist monks) with tacit support from politicians attacking places of worship and Islamic practices such as Halal food certification, cattle slaughter and dress code.
